Su Yeliao entered Qingcang's laboratory on the second day, cooperated with his king's great research, and expressed his admiration for his king's wisdom. Su Yeliao also foresaw the important role of this thing, but This does not mean that he can tolerate his king's behavior of immersing himself in research, not eating, and not resting. Under Su Yeliao's toughness, Qing Cang also abides by a good schedule of work and rest in his enthusiastic research.

The winter snow fell and stopped, stopped and fell, just like this, intermittently coming to the end of the year with time.

In this world, Chinese New Year is no bigger than National Day, no more lively than Autumn Harvest, but the special significance of the alternation between years still makes people want to celebrate.

Ordinary families get together for a meal. Officials will hold a banquet in the mansion of the local supreme leader, and the capital will naturally hold a banquet in the palace. As long as there is no special event, all officials in the capital will participate, once at the end of the year , once at the beginning of the year.

The officials entered the hall one after another. Only those with the highest status and the most favored by the king were eligible to be in the main hall, and the rest were placed in the side hall.

A stage is arranged in front of the main hall, surrounded by palaces on the front, left and right, where court musicians, dancers, and artisans present their skills to entertain the guests of the banquet.

The winter night fell a little early, the daylight was fading, and the hazy light could still make people see the road. Some lower-level officials came here before the sky was completely dark, waiting for them. It is not etiquette, but a kind of respect that low-status people must show to high-status people, and it is also an unspoken rule. People with high status cannot wait for people with low status like them.

According to this rule, every night banquet, which time period will come and who will come, has already been tacitly agreed.

It was getting late, and the status of the officials attending the banquet was getting higher and higher.

As the head of the Suye family, the lord of the Suye collar with the highest tax revenue in Xianguo, and the king's number one loyalist, Su Yeliao won the king's favor and personally taught him. After the age of 15, he became a high-level status in Xianguo. The later group is also qualified to sit in the main hall, the group closest to the king.

Su Yeliao and the people present responded politely, waiting for the arrival of the king and the beginning of the banquet together.Su Yeliao couldn't see anything on the surface, but no one knew what kind of hatred and sorrow flashed in Su Yeliao's heart before disguising himself.

The reason is this banquet, because of this banquet, the king he loves, his wife who makes him jealous, and the concubine with the official title will also appear, and he cannot refuse this banquet, because he has agreed with his king In order to keep the old age together, pretending to be sick is of course not an option. He can only suppress all negative emotions in an absolutely rational state. That state is already the only way he can face his king.With the deepening of this method, he is confident that he will not go crazy, so he dared to appear at this banquet.

It was getting dark, the lamps under the eaves were lit, and the bonfires set up around were also lit. The snowflakes were melted when they fell. The flames warmed the cold weather and added a sense of festiveness to the quiet night.

Amidst the sound of the ceremonial officials singing the arrival of the king, the noisy palace fell silent, stopped what they were saying, stopped what they were doing, and everyone knelt down, waiting for the appearance of the most powerful person in the country.

Amidst the rustling of the woman's dress, Su Yeliao's ears could only hear the steady footsteps.

"Everyone get up." Qing Cang, who took the seat of honor, asked the kneeling ministers to get up.

All the ministers thanked them neatly, got up, and landed on their seats one after another. The whole process was smooth and smooth, without any delay.

"This cup is a toast to all of you for a year of hard work." As the host of the banquet, Qing Cang held up the wine cup, made his opening remarks, and drank the wine in the cup.

"Thank you king." Another neat thank you, raised his glass and drank the first glass of wine tonight.

"You can do whatever you want." The ceremony was not complicated, and Qing Cang signaled that the banquet could begin.

The court musicians played the music, the artists began to perform, and the waiters began to get busy, serving the exquisite court delicacies.

Su Yeliao's identity is not too far away from Qing Cang, only two Patriarchs of the Chi family and the Jin family are separated, as well as several important ministers. Although Su Yeliao is the king's first loyalist, he is a talented person and the king's favorite minister. , but after all, he has only just entered the officialdom. Although he ranks prominently, he is not yet the center of final accounts.

And this position just happened to cover Su Yeliao's expression, so he silently looked at the person in the main seat behind the crowd.

His king sat on the throne, his stern face showed no emotion, he looked at the performers on the stage, his bony hands held up the wine cup, the edge touched the thin lips, and then he covered it and put it down, Su Yeliao knew that if it wasn't for the current state, his lower abdomen would definitely be hot. He was really dirty, and he could have sex in such a large crowd.

Su Yeliao watched his king slowly drink the wine from the wine cup, a pair of softer hands holding the wine bottle appeared in sight, Su Yeliao followed those hands, and moved his gaze to the owner of those hands.

It was not Mrs. Zi, Wang's mother, but a woman she had never seen before.

The long black hair is scattered on the dress as white as snow, the blue and purple irises are scattered all over the dress, the green eyes are like a tranquil lake, the eyebrows are affectionate, and the corners of the eyes are smiling. So delicate, soft and dignified, what a beautiful lady.

But it couldn't arouse Su Yeliao's goodwill. Sitting on the left side of his king, that important position belongs to his king's royal family. This woman is the woman who took away his king. How could Su Yeliao have a good impression? .

Would he not be able to recognize the look of those eyes looking at his king? This woman loves his king, and can love, loathe, hate, if not in a state of absolute reason , that berserk killing intent had already rushed out, ravaging the hall, making his king aware of his darkness and hatred.

The woman poured wine for his king, and his king softened his eyes and looked at the woman, ha, what a beautiful picture, handsome man, beautiful woman, how appropriate, how suitable, how fit, made in heaven, should be In this way, it makes people hate to tear it up.

Su Yeliao held the wine glass tightly.

Madam Yu poured good wine for Qing Cang. She felt cold for no reason, but she didn't know the reason. She retracted the wine bottle, raised her eyes, and suddenly felt a gaze. Following the feeling, she saw Su Yeliao.

It's so beautiful. In front of that inhuman beauty, Madam Yu couldn't help being amazed and admiring. She had short silver hair that reached her ears, exquisite and beautiful peerless beauty, and a faint smile bloomed on her lips, hazy with a twilight dream.

A very beautiful person, but for some reason, Mrs. Yu felt a sense of incongruity, and there was a faint bad feeling in her heart, which made her unable to have a good impression of this person.

Qing Cang noticed Madam Yu's absent-mindedness, and looked over, and saw Su Yeliao sitting in the crowd, holding up the newly filled wine cup, shaking it at Su Yeliao, and then drank it.

Su Yeliao stopped paying attention to Mrs. Yu, shook his glass like his king, and drank the wine in the cup.

"Wang, who is he?" Seeing Wang's actions, Mrs. Yu was a little surprised. It is rare for Wang to take such an active approach.

"Su Yeliao." Qing Cang replied flatly.

Madam Yu understood that she was the king's first loyalist, she was too beautiful, such beauty belonged to men.

The actions of Qing Cang and Su Yeliao also fell into the eyes of those who cared. It seemed that Wang attached great importance to Su Yeliao.

Su Yeliao knew that he had attracted the attention of others, so he no longer looked directly at Qingcang, but peeked at it without any trace. As time passed slowly, Su Yeliao suddenly realized that something was wrong. It came from his royal family and those concubines. Room is wrong, pay attention to it.Su Yeliao couldn't believe what he found, how could it be?

Three hours later, Mrs. Zi felt a little sleepy, so she took the lead to leave. As the king, it was not easy for Qing Cang to leave the banquet. As a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Yu naturally followed to take care of Mrs. Zi. The rest of the concubines saw the two most distinguished ladies leave. It's not good to stay anymore, a group of women left in unison.

Su Yeyi squinted his eyes, carefully observed the walking posture of the group of women, and confirmed something.

After another hour, the banquet came to an end, and after the last glass of wine, it officially ended.

Qing Cang got up, called Su Yeliao to stop, and the two walked towards the palace together.

The cold wind was blowing, the lights were flickering, and flakes of snow could be seen falling.Qing Cang walked step by step, and Su Yeliao followed silently.

Entering the familiar room, Su Yeliao took a look, nothing had changed, this room did not have the imprint of an extra person because of his king marrying a wife, it still smelled like his king alone.

The attendants serving Qing Cang have been with Qing Cang for some years, and they are very clear about Qing Cang's habits at the end of the year. The wine and food have been prepared and placed in boxes with charcoal fire, so that they will not be affected by the weather. become icy cold.Knowing the current affairs, he retreated, leaving only Su Yeliao and Qing Cang in the room.

He picked up the wine glass, put one in front of himself, and one in front of Su Yeliao. Qing Cang poured the wine himself, and when he was done, he held the wine glass and opened the door. There was another door two tatami away. But it had been opened a long time ago, the wind and snow were raging outside, and the ingenious design of the eaves made it impossible for them to get close.

It was snowing today, there was no moon in the sky, and Qing Cang did not sit on the corridor, but leaned against the edge of the door, picked up the wine cup, and drank.

Su Yeliao approached his king and poured wine for him.

"Another year has passed." Qing Cang said.

"Yes."

After a pointless opening, the two began to chat.

After drinking one glass after another, Su Yeliao poured another glass of wine for his king, "My lord." Su Yeliao's voice was hesitant.

The author has something to say: By the way, today, when I read the legendary brave man, I felt at a loss that the relationship between Xiong and Reiner was full of JQ, the dark brave and the lonely devil, devouring, eating you, etc. I'm at a loss for imagination
